ZIXI,
ZIXIT CORP - Selected By Four Healthcare Companies To Provide Secure Email
New York, New York, Aug 15, 2001 (Market News Publishing via COMTEX) -- ZixIt Corporation announced that WellMed Medical
Management, IPC-The Hospitalist Company, Texas Oncology, P.A., and Radiology Associates of Tarrant County have all chosen
ZixMail(TM), a secure email application and service, to ensure the security of documents sent and received by email via the Internet.
This will help them comply with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations for electronic messaging. All
companies conducted thorough product evaluations before selecting ZixMail and are now in the first stage of phased-in deployment.
"The healthcare industry is increasingly turning to the Internet to conduct business. Our objective is to make the medical profession
aware that HIPAA compliance in electronic messaging can be simple with ZixMail," said Steve Gersten, senior vice president of
sales and marketing for ZixIt. "ZixIt facilitates healthcare professionals, doctors, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, insurers, health
plans, and all other healthcare providers in complying with new patient privacy laws. Not only do we easily satisfy their stringent
security requirements, our unique certified receipt feature will actually help them increase efficiencies and decrease costs."
ZixMail works with all popular email systems and improves Internet communications security beyond existing firewalls, enabling
users to easily send encrypted and digitally-signed communications to anyone, even non-ZixMail users. Users do not change their
email addresses or systems. ZixMail's certified receipt feature, which provides proof of delivery by irrefutably establishing when a
message was sent and opened, further increases its usefulness as an everyday business tool. Both large enterprises and small
businesses can benefit from ZixMail's flexibility and scalability.
